A VOCALOID "vocalist", "character", or "mascot" (unofficial terminology)[1] refers heavily to an illustrated character of a VOCALOID™-powered voicebank; although a product name or miscellaneous representation (like an avatar) can be included.

The marketing of a vocalist varies by company and some companies may provide their vocalist with a basic profile, backstory, or personality that the consumer can work with. The illustration of a vocalist has no effect on the software and is done purely for decorative purposes.

For a list of VOCALOID voicebanks by engine, see Status.

In order for a product to be classified as a "VOCALOID", there should be acknowledgment by the YAMAHA Corporation under their licensing terms and there is a VOCALOID™-powered vocal in development or fully released. This includes characters from games with vocals powered by the VOCALOID™ software, as well as privatized vocals.

It can be noted that fanmade Derivatives and other synthesizer characters such as UTAU are not classified as "VOCALOIDs".
